Lessons are $40 each, private lessons are 45 minutes, group lessons are an hour and 30
minutes. Group lesson students should arrive 15 minutes early to prepare
their horses. New students are initially required to take private lessons until they are at a
level where they can be placed in a group. All students are required to
sign a liability release and photo release. All students are required to
wear a modest, fitted shirt, jeans or riding pants, and riding boots.
We
are primarily looking for 8-18 year old students that have riding experience and
are interested in competing, but we give lessons to students of all ages and
levels of experience, and students who are not wanting to compete.
Private lesson times are very limited. In order to
reserve a regular, weekly lesson time or a spot in a group lesson, students are required to pay for each month's lessons in
advance at the beginning of each month. One lesson per month can be
rescheduled, but it must be rescheduled 24 hours before that lesson time, make
up lessons must be rescheduled within one week. Lessons not canceled with
at least 24 hours notice can not be rescheduled and the full lesson fee is still
charged.




Competitions/Shows
Our program is unique in that our students are able to take
lessons as well as compete on many different horses.
We believe that horses are the very best teachers that you can
have, and our students are able to get a wide variety of experience by being
able to ride so many different horses.
We have an always changing, steady supply of quality, well
trained performance horses through our consignment/sales program;
barrel, reining, hunter,
jumper, sorting, and team penning, horses.
All our students must be comfortable being photographed and filmed, because we
are a sales barn, the camera is always rolling! During the week, year round, we go to barrel races, sortings,
and team pennings; as well as go to jackpot competitions about one weekend per
month.
We compete in a handful
of hunter/jumper shows every year.
We also attend clinics
held at outside barns. Because of our sale horses students are able to
ride, as well as compete, on nice performance horses without the commitment of
purchasing or leasing a horse, check out our sold
pages, to see video and information on the type of sale horses we typically
have available.
Students who want to compete regularly or participate in series,
are required to take at least two lessons per week.
Students have to cover their own entry fees at
practices, clinics, shows, and competitions. We only charge $100 total for
use of a horse, tack, coaching, and hauling to each event, clinic, competition,
and show. (The $100 fee is not refundable if the student cancels attending
the event with less than 48 hours notice.)
Working Students
We
do have a working student program for students wanting to work in exchange
for riding lessons. To be eligible you must be at least 12 years old and have at least some prior
experience working in a barn, and handling horses. The
work
required can be anything from cleaning stalls, feeding, watering, cleaning
buckets, and cleaning tack, or turning out, grooming, tacking up, walking out,
and bathing horses. Students are expected to work at least 5
hours in exchange for a
lesson. Typically a student schedules to work a morning, with a lesson
either at the beginning or the end of the morning, but work time can be
scheduled some afternoons/evenings as well.
